Quotes by Al Wilson

“We know where we stand and where we are. Why bring it up? Its the past. That happened last year.”

“We have to continue to play at a high level and get more turnovers. We have to be around the football and give the offense more opportunities to score points.”

“We dont have a clue (what to expect).”

“Theyre definitely going to have us on our toes, no question about it. And its going to be up to us as professionals to make sure were able to adjust and make the right decisions.”

“Having Mike Anderson back, thats big. We really missed him last year. And having Ron Dayne, that makes us better in short-yardage right there. Its the will, if a guy wants it, hes going to get it. If the guys up front help him, the back can do the rest himself, and we have those kind of backs.”

“We would love to bring a playoff game back to the city of Denver. Trust me, I know we havent won the AFC West since Ive been here. Trust me, I know that, and you dont have to tell me that. But thats what we push for. Were pushing to win our division, first of all. And once you win your division it gives you a home playoff game and possibly home-field advantage and you go from there.”

“Its tough. Its a crazy business. It was unfortunate for us, but we still have to find a way to make plays, find a way to get it done. We just didnt do that.”

“Its just one of those things. The coaches definitely didnt expect three corners and Mike Anderson to go down. But it happens, man. And you have to find a way to overcome it.”

“First game back, making a statement like that is big.”

“We just have to get it done no matter how long were out there. Big plays can kill you, man. Thats why you have to execute on every down. You do all that work, and then they hit a big play on you. That cant be how we do things.”
